2 What Is Medicaid Managed Care? The Agency for Health Care Administration (Agency) is responsible for managing the Florida Medicaid program. The Agency contracts with health plans to manage the way their enrollees receive health care services. 4 What Is Medicaid Managed Care? Health plans contract with a variety of health care providers to offer quality health care services to ensure enrollees have access to the health care providers and the health care they need. 5 Types of Health Plans There are two types of Medicaid health plans: Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs) Provider Service Networks (PSNs) 6 2
3 Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) An HMO is an entity licensed under Chapter 641, Florida Statutes. As allowed under s (3), F.S., the Agency may contract with HMOs on a prepaid fixed monthly rate per member (e.g. capitation rate) for which the HMO assumes all risk for providing covered services to their enrollees. HMOs are required by contract to ensure that their enrollees have access to all Medicaid state plan services and a complete network of providers. HMO networks are not limited to Medicaid providers. Some plans cover additional benefits beyond those paid for by Medicaid such as preventive adult dental. 7 Provider Service Network (PSN) A PSN is a network established or organized and operated by a health care provider, or group of affiliated health care providers, which provides a substantial proportion of the health care items and services under a contract directly through the provider or group of affiliated providers. (See s (4)(d), F.S.,) 8 Statewide Medicaid Managed Care (SMMC) Program 9 3
4 The SMMC program does not/is not: The program does not limit medically necessary services. The program is not linked to changes in the Medicare program and does not change Medicare benefits or choices. 10 The SMMC program does not/is not: The program is not linked to National Health Care Reform, or the Affordable Care Act passed by the U.S. Congress. It does not contain mandates for individuals to purchase insurance. It does not contain mandates for employers to purchase insurance. It does not expand Medicaid coverage or cost the state or federal government any additional money. 11 What Is the SMMC Program? A program authorized by the 2011 Florida Legislature through House Bill 7107, creating Part IV of Chapter 409, Florida Statutes, to establish the Florida Medicaid program as a statewide, integrated managed care program for all covered services, including long-term care services. This program is referred to as statewide Medicaid managed care (SMMC). 12 4

13 Added Value/ Benefits The Agency negotiated added value/benefits with selected managed care plans in the MMA portion of the Statewide Medicaid Managed Care program. Areas where added value/benefits were achieved include: Expanded benefits. Enhanced network adequacy standards. Establishing minimum thresholds for electronic health records (meaningful use) adoption. Enhanced standards related to claims processing, prior authorization, and enrollee/provider help line (call center operations). 37 Expanded Benefits Expanded Benefit # of PSNs offering # of HMOs offering Expanded PC Visits for Non-pregnant Adults 4 6 Expanded HH Care for Non-pregnant Adults 3 5 Expanded Physician Home Visits 2 5 Expanded Prenatal/Perinatal Visits 3 6 Expanded OP Services 2 6 OTC Medication/Supplies 3 6 Expanded Adult Dental Services 3 6 Waived Copayments 3 6 Expanded Vision Services 4 6 Expanded Hearing Services 2 6 Newborn Circumcisions 4 5 Pneumonia Vaccine 3 6 Influenza Vaccine 4 6 Shingles Vaccine 3 5 Post-Discharge Meals 2 6 Nutritional Counseling 3 5 Pet Therapy 0 2 Art Therapy 0 4 Equine Therapy 0 1 Medically Related Lodging & Food Network Adequacy Standards The managed care plans agreed to enhanced network adequacy standards, which include: Increasing the number of primary care and specialist providers in a region that are accepting new Medicaid enrollees; Increasing the number of primary care providers that offer after hour appointment availability; and Establishing utilization rates for out-of-network specialty care and hospital admissions
14 Electronic Health Records The Agency selected plans that were committed to assisting the Agency in our efforts to increase electronic health record adoption. Managed Care Plans agreed to establish thresholds for the number of physicians and hospitals that would adopt meaningful use standards by the end of the second contract year. Managed Care Plans agreed to establish thresholds for the number of enrollees who are assigned to primary care providers meeting meaningful use requirements. 40 Additional Enhanced Standards Prior Authorization: Selected managed care plans agreed to process standard and expedited prior authorization requests more timely. For many of the standards, the timeframes for processing the authorization request have been reduced by almost half. Enrollee/Provider Help Line Selected managed care plans agreed to adhere to more stringent call center performance standards. Areas where we achieved added value include: reduced time for the average speed to answer, reduced call blockage rates, reduced call abandonment rates, and reduced wait times for calls placed in the queue. 41 New Contracting Requirement Managed care plans are expected to coordinate care, manage chronic disease, and prevent the need for more costly services. Plans achieve this performance standard when physician payment rates equal or exceed Medicare rates for similar services. (Section (2)(a), F.S.) The Agency may impose fines or other sanctions including liquidated damages on a plan that fails to meet this performance standard after 2 years of continuous operation
15 Tips for Providers Contract with each health plan whose members you want to serve. Be sure to check eligibility to determine if the recipient is enrolled in a health plan. If prior authorization is required, you must obtain it from the health plan. Submit claims to the health plan, not the Medicaid fiscal agent. 43 Resources 44 Information on the LTC plans available in each region and on how to choose an LTC plan are available on the Choice Counseling website at:
